Here's a clip from MADtv showing a fictional airline safety video... although it's two years old, it seems to be ahead of its time when it comes to predicting excessive airline fees ("Seatbelts can be purchased for $5"). While airlines won't be charging for seat belts, they can (and often do) charge for just about everything else. Good old Ryanair might come to a lot of people's minds, let's remember than on Ryanair, they wouldn't even give you that single peanut for free. (Thanks to FlyersView for the heads up.)
